The Legendary Pink Dots - New Tomorrow lyrics
[The Legendary Pink Dots - New Tomorrow lyrics]
Silent as the final hour heralding a quake
We cut the wire we slipped the guard
Sprayed "LOVE" across the barricades
As searchlights swooped and froze
And failed to isolate
A trace of life outside the
Gates of New Tomorrow
The penalty for deviation's clear
To those with ears and eyes we stretch our
Claws behind closed doors
We always have our alibis
Outside we smile with lips zipped
Eyes fixed forward we never criticise the
Pure and guiding Light of new Tomorrow
But though they burned the history books
They
Cannot kill the ghost that cruises Blindman's
Boulevard and plants a rose
Who flings his seeds
Of Breakdown Bridge and sees a
Legend grow of life
Beyond the throes of New Tomorrow
And we have watched the sun roll down the
Mountain to a frozen lake we
Have heard our laughs
Go on forever deep inside a crystal cave we
Told them as they plunged the needle
Pledging
Our escape from the all-embracing arms of New
Tomorrow wE SHALL SEE OUR KINGDOM COME!
We cut the wire we slipped the guard
Sprayed "LOVE" across the barricades
As searchlights swooped and froze
And failed to isolate
A trace of life outside the
Gates of New Tomorrow
The penalty for deviation's clear
To those with ears and eyes we stretch our
Claws behind closed doors
We always have our alibis
Outside we smile with lips zipped
Eyes fixed forward we never criticise the
Pure and guiding Light of new Tomorrow
But though they burned the history books
They
Cannot kill the ghost that cruises Blindman's
Boulevard and plants a rose
Who flings his seeds
Of Breakdown Bridge and sees a
Legend grow of life
Beyond the throes of New Tomorrow
And we have watched the sun roll down the
Mountain to a frozen lake we
Have heard our laughs
Go on forever deep inside a crystal cave we
Told them as they plunged the needle
Pledging
Our escape from the all-embracing arms of New
Tomorrow wE SHALL SEE OUR KINGDOM COME!
